This isn't my favorite Nirvana song but this might be my favorite Nirvana video. It's just so simple their in the garage with a bunch of antiques. He has his daughter in the video. They didn't try to be flashy or try to impress you they just took you into thier world. That's Dope.

Nirvana wasn't about "how beautiful Kurt was" it was about music and raw emotions. He even tried to look and dress ugly so that people will not talk about his appearance.

I see lots of comments about how the lyrics are silly/simplistic, but it's actually quite impressive to create such an authentic voice/POV of a young child. Idk exactly why this song always hits me so hard...I guess it's because Kurt just actually transports me back to being a small child and the way it FELT.

Sliver was nirvanas first attempt to make a pop song and simplified chord progression, favoring melodies, pop power chords and simple lyrics to appease to more people. It was meant as an introduction to nevermind
I never understand why no one ever mentions THIS video when they talk about the best Nirvana videos. To me, this video is as close to the heart of punk rock as Nirvana ever got.
I’ve been a Nirvana fan since 1991 when I was 15 and absolutely love how raw and unpolished this video is. You can tell the band was having a good time doing it.
The style was definitely of the era. The other style was skate videos. I miss that era. It had a certain feel to it. Too old to fit in with hippies. Too young to fit in with technology. Lots of angst and lots of kids running around unmanaged by their parents. Kind of felt like we were all on our own.
bro this has remained one of my fav songs since i was a kid, and not just for its silly tone, but because it resonated with me. my fam barely had enough money, living in the suburbs of seattle, so my parents were constantly working, and i ended up being pretty much raised by my grandparents. there’s a lot of crazy stuff that’s happened in my childhood - between my mom and i, being an illegal resident of canada, living in a car on the road, living in a friend’s house, etc, but the fact that i resonated with this song in this sense since a young age says something i think.
I know it brings me down but when I listened to nirvana I felt was awesome my mum died in a car crash I’ll never be the same again. But lucky nirvanas always there thank you nirvana
@@sagnikmustafi2374 thank you man, things have been good lately since we moved to the twin cities. i hope that in the future your parents won’t have to work as hard as they do so you can have more family time
@@sagnikmustafi2374 I've lived with my grandparents off and on my whole life...all together ive lived with them more than i have my mom. everytime my mom got us back she would go back to drugs and my brother and i ended up going through abuse from her boyfriend...now husband, unfortunately. i love my mom- but it was never "home" with her. i love how kurt put a joking happy tone over is music but if you really listen its so much more than that. i relate to this song a lot and im sorry other people do, but im glad we all have something to relate to.
Others may find the lyrics shallow and simply written, but I think it's clever. For me, this is a POV of a kid with nonexistent parents and was always left with someone else to take care of them (in this case, the grandma). In that sense, the words doesn't have to be too articulate. It's simple, realistic, and behind the happy tunes, lies the a sad truth that's happening to most kids. My interpretation only. I might be wrong, but this is how I see it.
His eyes are beautiful. He was too good for this world. I remember my 1st nirvana concert i went with my friends and we sat front row! It was the best experience ive ever had.. i met him he gave me a hug and gave his autograph.. i remember just crying.. I have his autograph hanging on my wall... will never forget that day.... Bless you Kurt.. hope your having your well deserved rest up there xx
I love how he looked genuinely happy to make a video for this song, around his stuff, his daughter, making chaos in a room with his friends. It is honestly wholesome.
This has always been my favorite nirvana song because its so direct no metaphors no confusion. The funny thing is I think most of Kurt's writing was simple but often let the audience paint their own picture. But not this one this one is pure simplist honesty.
I just learnt yesterday that teen spirit was an actual deodorant and that time he didnt even know that just liked the graffiti writing on his wall painted by his female friend "Kurt smells like teen spirit".
My mother didn't allow me to listen to this song when I was 13. We had fights almost every day and I was really depressed at that time. I think she just couldn't take the truth. The song reminded me so much of my childhood and she knew that.
@@crazysilly2914 Yes. Courtney was off doing something and he was at home with Frances the day the rest of the band came over to shoot the video. Kurt decided he wanted a set up that looked reminiscent to his old apartment and they sort of recreated that with a lot of random things that Kurt had stored away.
@Joshua Caravantes I only discovered Nirvana because of the Batman trailer LOL I was greatly surprised at how mellow some of his music is, because I’d always assumed grunge was in the ‘heavy metal’ genre. I was also greatly surprised to discovered they did that song you hear a lot on radio and events, which I found out was called ‘smells like teen spirit'
@@mallypally You're welcome, Kurt. Who's this friend? Probably Krist. He's not ignoring you. You're the one missing for 26 years. If you're still here, you won't be ignored.
I think this song has a meaning “Mom and dad went to a show, they dropped me off at grandpa joes”- Parents dripped Kurt off at his grandparents while they went off. Grandma take me home” he wants to go home to mom and dad. He then stays with his grandparents for a while. “I woke up in my mother’s arms” he was back with his parents and he is still saying “grandma take me home” he now considers his grandparents “home”
@@Skategoodmen just coz a chorus is repeated doesnt mean it cant be used in clever ways and change meaning trhu the song. Don't know what being creative is lmfao
departmentofnatural awesomeness It’s actually about his parents divorcing and him being switched around homes. he doesn’t understand it and asks his grandparents to take him home to live with his mom and dad. when he realises that will never happen he wants to be left alone.
Genius piece of songwriting...... he captured a childs genuine perspective.. And admit it, who didnt feel like screaming a chant like this when we were 8 yrs old and being ignored. Children suffer in silence
Verse 1] When Mom and Dad went to a show They dropped me off at grandpa Joe's I kicked and screamed; said, "Please, don't go!" [Chorus] Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! [Verse 2] Had to eat my dinner there Mashed potatoes and stuff like that I couldn't chew my meat too good [Chorus] Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! [Verse 3] She said, "Why don't you stop your crying? Go outside and ride your bike" That's what I did, I killed my toe! [Chorus] Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! [Verse 4] Well, after dinner I had ice cream I fell asleep and watched TV I woke up in my mother's arms! [Chorus] Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! I wanna be alone!
I was born a few days after Francis and my mom is and was a huge nirvana fan so im sure she had me dancing like this to sliver as well. I have a very deep connection to nirvana from practically listening to it since birth. I get emotional over the fate of him and the band that I still haven't figured out totally why. Truly a masterpiece their entire band was. RIP Kurt
I love the video behind this song. It showed the band when they were all just doing what they wanted... having fun. They were the voice of a generation of kids and didn’t really get to enjoy being one themselves. They didn’t like how they were taken too seriously or that they were in the public eye. This video captures what they were all about.
@@jessa6208 It's actually a poster of Mikhail Gorbachev, who was the general secretary, chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, chairman of the Supreme Soviet before becoming President of the Soviet Union from 1990-1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed. Gorbachev was believer in Marxist-Leninism before changing towards social democracy and was influential in helping end the Cold War and addressing the human rights abuses that plagued the Soviet Union.
@Markus Hoffman, thanks, I looked harder and noticed, of course I knew logically it wasn’t a trump poster just a joke, but thanks for the insight, I know all about the Cold War, actually did a thesis paper on the main causes, the “hot wars” it spurred, such as Nam (even though no one is gonna admit that) and the Berlin Wall with Reagan (believe it or not I’m old enough to remember that on the news lol) but I do see who it is now.... I’m a history nerd, anyway, cool, thanks for the reply!
It annoys me how today people wear nirvana shirts and they don't even know they're a band, now when I wear my nirvana shirts I always feel as if I'm just following a fashion statement. High five to all the real nirvana fans :)
yeah but he did hate the world and offed himself which included all of his "real fans" friends, band mates, and family...I like nirvana music a lot but... i've never experimented with heroin and no one can know what torment he went through. unfortunately he, and the band are done for a reason. loser kids don't know who this band is and what was so special about feeling the energy of their music. They buy NIRVANA murch at hot topic or online wherever because people make tons of money off of his estate now. Anyways RIP to Kurt it is forgivable but not forgotten.
This is what's so great about Nirvana ... They have the massive hits but their albums are filled with gems like this. Their album art was also fantastic ... God I miss buying their music...
This came out when I was 4 years old. All these years later, I listen to this song like it was written about me. I remember being small and waking up to my mom carrying me to the car from my grandmas house. I listen to this shit now and it makes me cry because my parents and grandparents are all gone, but it’s still one of my all time favorites. 🎶💔
I'm 51 been listening to nirvana nearly 60 years my parents who are long dead now introduced me to them at a young age and I haven't stopped listening since I love the new music keep it up guys

개비정한세상 sad part is that this is a true story.His parents left him at his grandparents for like 2 months They picked him up and that is one of the reasons he hated his parents.Not because he was crazy.I think his parents were probably not as good and that’s why he had such a horrible childhood
@@LilChay the trashy side of Washingtonian families is directly reflected in how his parents treated him through childhood. especially in in the town where he grew up. it's why there are so many disenchanted hipsters in the northwest who claim the family institution is bullshit. it's not actually bullshit, but the attitude stems from the betrayal people felt in their youth by adults who probably shouldn't be raising children.
I mean.. if I have to name one thing about this song that truly displays a simple yet mastered songwriting sensibility on Kurt's part is starting his vocal in a lower register and then bringing it to a scream in the 3rd and subsequent verses... The impact is huge. It's a simple trick yet the execution is brilliant and makes the hair stand.. Utterly genius.

I had this album back in the day and played it a few times. I was always more into metal. 25 years later I am just rediscovering how truly amazing this band was. I am so happy I am finally able appreciate these guys for how talented they were. Sorry for neglecting you for so long, Nirvana!
Nirvana es una de las pocas bandas que no son sobrevaloradas. Casi todas tienen una o 2 canciones buenas y eso es todo, Nirvana tiene un muy buen repertorio
This is some of the very finest rock and roll ever made. A tapestry of images of childhood, that heartbreaking shredding voice. It brings tears to my eyes and makes me wish I could go back
pretty sure it's about his childhood, he moved around a lot and didn't feel like he belonged anywhere and this song is like his need for a space where he belongs and is accepted (im not sure just my interpretation)
As a kid my parents dropped me off at my great grandmother’s house. Every Friday. I hated that. It was so boring at my grandmother’s. But I went nonetheless. The older me is great full for the time I spent with her. This morning this song came to mind along with those memories. Thanks nirvana:)

If I could choose any part of my life to relive, it'd be my early teens when music like this and bands like Nirvana were the soundtrack to my existence.
Nirvana’s videos are so simple, yet better than most all of music videos to this day. Put so much effort into replicating the picture exactly how he saw it in his head and nowadays a video can barely put a coherent picture of a concept together. This man was so smart

LETRAS: Mamá y papá fueron a un show Me dejaron en el abuelo Joe Di patadas y grité, dije por favor, no vayas Abuela me lleva a casa Tuve que cenar allí Puré de patatas y cosas por el estilo No pude masticar mi carne muy bien Ella dijo, bueno, no empieces a llorar. Sal al exterior y monta tu bicicleta Eso es lo que hice, me maté el dedo del pie. Después de la cena, tuve helado Me dormí y vi la tele Me desperté en brazos de mi madre Abuela me lleva a casa Quiero estar solo
i knew the nirvana when i was 10 years old, because my mother always listen songs like "school", "drain you", "sliver".. and God, i am so happy for this!
From the start of this to about 0:55 the way Kurt is inflecting on the words, and his tone of voice, reminds me a bit of a cross between Syd Barrett and a young David Bowie.
without even trying this song is so deep and relatable on so many levels, its really about the absolute chaos of being a child, wanting safety, and having no control at a young age over your life. a formerly sensitive child knows exactly the scenario he is describing in this song. its seemingly funny but so amazingly universal at the same time. we all just want safety and love!
Never even imagined one day I'd love a song that consists mostly of "Grandma take me home" so much If I counted right, Kurt said it 43 times. In little more than 2 minutes.
Kurt Cobain said in these words himself: ''I had a feeling if I named it Sliver most people would call it Silver'' His feeling was right!

The style was definitely of the era. The other style was skate videos. I miss that era. It had a certain feel to it. Too old to fit in with hippies. Too young to fit in with technology. Lots of angst and lots of kids running around unmanaged by their parents. Kind of felt like we were all on our own.
porcupineracer2 Yeah man you speak the truth. There’s a reason why we’re called latch key kids. That being said, I wouldn’t change a thing.
true dat

mek it happens to the best of us. Just think, one day you’ll have some dumb ass telling you you’re old as well.

bro this has remained one of my fav songs since i was a kid, and not just for its silly tone, but because it resonated with me. my fam barely had enough money, living in the suburbs of seattle, so my parents were constantly working, and i ended up being pretty much raised by my grandparents. there’s a lot of crazy stuff that’s happened in my childhood - between my mom and i, being an illegal resident of canada, living in a car on the road, living in a friend’s house, etc, but the fact that i resonated with this song in this sense since a young age says something i think.
I know it brings me down but when I listened to nirvana I felt was awesome my mum died in a car crash I’ll never be the same again. But lucky nirvanas always there thank you nirvana
@@sagnikmustafi2374 thank you man, things have been good lately since we moved to the twin cities. i hope that in the future your parents won’t have to work as hard as they do so you can have more family time

Another 1992 gem
@@sagnikmustafi2374 I've lived with my grandparents off and on my whole life...all together ive lived with them more than i have my mom. everytime my mom got us back she would go back to drugs and my brother and i ended up going through abuse from her boyfriend...now husband, unfortunately. i love my mom- but it was never "home" with her. i love how kurt put a joking happy tone over is music but if you really listen its so much more than that. i relate to this song a lot and im sorry other people do, but im glad we all have something to relate to.
Others may find the lyrics shallow and simply written, but I think it's clever. For me, this is a POV of a kid with nonexistent parents and was always left with someone else to take care of them (in this case, the grandma). In that sense, the words doesn't have to be too articulate. It's simple, realistic, and behind the happy tunes, lies the a sad truth that's happening to most kids. My interpretation only. I might be wrong, but this is how I see it.
Kurt really hated when people over analyzed his songs like this lmao
the lyrics are very clever
he says he wakes up in his mother's arms, not to mention that the first line is "mom and dad went to a show", why would his parents be nonexistent?
It's obviously like you said
That's how I've always interpreted the song
His eyes are beautiful. He was too good for this world.
I remember my 1st nirvana concert i went with my friends and we sat front row! It was the best experience ive ever had.. i met him he gave me a hug and gave his autograph.. i remember just crying.. I have his autograph hanging on my wall... will never forget that day....
Bless you Kurt.. hope your having your well deserved rest up there xx

today i saw someone at school wearing a nirvana shirt, i didnt ask them if they listen to their music and went on with my day
Why??
Kurt Cobain: Smart One..
Nice 👍
you should befriend them!
Amazing, you sir have a will of iron
This has always been my favorite nirvana song because its so direct no metaphors no confusion. The funny thing is I think most of Kurt's writing was simple but often let the audience paint their own picture. But not this one this one is pure simplist honesty.
its a true gift to be able to say something so simple but perfectly describes what a persons feeling
I like this one the first time I heard it---liked how down to earth it was.
I just learnt yesterday that teen spirit was an actual deodorant and that time he didnt even know that just liked the graffiti writing on his wall painted by his female friend "Kurt smells like teen spirit".
I love how a band like Nirvana can make a hard song about normal things
My mother didn't allow me to listen to this song when I was 13.
We had fights almost every day and I was really depressed at that time. I think she just couldn't take the truth.
The song reminded me so much of my childhood and she knew that.

@@crazysilly2914 Yes. Courtney was off doing something and he was at home with Frances the day the rest of the band came over to shoot the video.

I was greatly surprised at how mellow some of his music is, because I’d always assumed grunge was in the ‘heavy metal’ genre.
I was also greatly surprised to discovered they did that song you hear a lot on radio and events, which I found out was called ‘smells like teen spirit'

Happy 34 years to Sliver! Recorded 7/11/90!
I think this song has a meaning
“Mom and dad went to a show, they dropped me off at grandpa joes”- Parents dripped Kurt off at his grandparents while they went off. Grandma take me home” he wants to go home to mom and dad. He then stays with his grandparents for a while. “I woke up in my mother’s arms” he was back with his parents and he is still saying “grandma take me home” he now considers his grandparents “home”
insightful!
no lmfao
@@dids3384 he doesnt know what a chorus is lmfao
@@Skategoodmen just coz a chorus is repeated doesnt mean it cant be used in clever ways and change meaning trhu the song. Don't know what being creative is lmfao
departmentofnatural awesomeness It’s actually about his parents divorcing and him being switched around homes. he doesn’t understand it and asks his grandparents to take him home to live with his mom and dad. when he realises that will never happen he wants to be left alone.

And admit it, who didnt feel like screaming a chant like this when we were 8 yrs old and being ignored.

Fun fact, Kurt named the song sliver on purpose because he knew everyone would read it as "Silver."
Well, I read it at silver and idk what to think right now. :/
no he named it bcs the meat he ate at his grandparents was "sliver".
Was that supposed to be funny?
im being serious
Well I saw an interview where he said what I stated above. He probably said the meat thing being funny in an interview.
Verse 1]
When Mom and Dad went to a show
They dropped me off at grandpa Joe's
I kicked and screamed; said, "Please, don't go!"
[Chorus]
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
[Verse 2]
Had to eat my dinner there
Mashed potatoes and stuff like that
I couldn't chew my meat too good
[Chorus]
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
[Verse 3]
She said, "Why don't you stop your crying?
Go outside and ride your bike"
That's what I did, I killed my toe!
[Chorus]
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
[Verse 4]
Well, after dinner I had ice cream
I fell asleep and watched TV
I woke up in my mother's arms!
[Chorus]
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!

I love the video behind this song. It showed the band when they were all just doing what they wanted... having fun. They were the voice of a generation of kids and didn’t really get to enjoy being one themselves. They didn’t like how they were taken too seriously or that they were in the public eye.
This video captures what they were all about.
(What?...)
Is that a poster of trump in the background??? 😱
Some of the knick knacks in the garage bring back memories of Dinosaur Jr's "Freak Scene" video.
@@jessa6208 It's actually a poster of Mikhail Gorbachev, who was the general secretary, chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, chairman of the Supreme Soviet before becoming President of the Soviet Union from 1990-1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed. Gorbachev was believer in Marxist-Leninism before changing towards social democracy and was influential in helping end the Cold War and addressing the human rights abuses that plagued the Soviet Union.
@Markus Hoffman, thanks, I looked harder and noticed, of course I knew logically it wasn’t a trump poster just a joke, but thanks for the insight, I know all about the Cold War, actually did a thesis paper on the main causes, the “hot wars” it spurred, such as Nam (even though no one is gonna admit that) and the Berlin Wall with Reagan (believe it or not I’m old enough to remember that on the news lol) but I do see who it is now.... I’m a history nerd, anyway, cool, thanks for the reply!

It annoys me how today people wear nirvana shirts and they don't even know they're a band, now when I wear my nirvana shirts I always feel as if I'm just following a fashion statement. High five to all the real nirvana fans :)
*high five*
yeah but he did hate the world and offed himself which included all of his "real fans" friends, band mates, and family...I like nirvana music a lot but... i've never experimented with heroin and no one can know what torment he went through. unfortunately he, and the band are done for a reason. loser kids don't know who this band is and what was so special about feeling the energy of their music. They buy NIRVANA murch at hot topic or online wherever because people make tons of money off of his estate now. Anyways RIP to Kurt it is forgivable but not forgotten.

개비정한세상 sad part is that this is a true story.His parents left him at his grandparents for like 2 months
They picked him up and that is one of the reasons he hated his parents.Not because he was crazy.I think his parents were probably not as good and that’s why he had such a horrible childhood
wow that must've been hard to remember
@@LilChay the trashy side of Washingtonian families is directly reflected in how his parents treated him through childhood. especially in in the town where he grew up. it's why there are so many disenchanted hipsters in the northwest who claim the family institution is bullshit. it's not actually bullshit, but the attitude stems from the betrayal people felt in their youth by adults who probably shouldn't be raising children.

I mean.. if I have to name one thing about this song that truly displays a simple yet mastered songwriting sensibility on Kurt's part is starting his vocal in a lower register and then bringing it to a scream in the 3rd and subsequent verses... The impact is huge. It's a simple trick yet the execution is brilliant and makes the hair stand.. Utterly genius.

Tiago Duarte THE Nirvana LMFAO
For me the energy for this song will never get old
From the start of this to about 0:55 the way Kurt is inflecting on the words, and his tone of voice, reminds me a bit of a cross between Syd Barrett and a young David Bowie.
without even trying this song is so deep and relatable on so many levels, its really about the absolute chaos of being a child, wanting safety, and having no control at a young age over your life. a formerly sensitive child knows exactly the scenario he is describing in this song. its seemingly funny but so amazingly universal at the same time. we all just want safety and love!
has anyone realized that in the video it never shows him playing the guitar
